NEW ADGENDA!

Four weeks ago Doug and I met with our Stake President for an interview. We had just inspected 4 homes in Salt Lake City, and made a mad dash to be in his office at 7:30, we arrived 7 minutes late, and apologized, saying our life is crazy! He said, "well I am about to make it crazier"!
Doug is now the new Bishop of the Randolph 1st ward, and for sure his life is going to be crazy! When he spoke to the ward on Sunday he gave this analogy of his life....He said, "I am like a tough piece of beef steak, that needed, pounding, tenderizing, seasoning,searing, and lots and lots of patient steaming to make me tender." I have been a wittness to most of this tenderizing! He definately has a tender heart when it comes to His Savior Jesus Christ. I know he will do a great job!

THE FESTIVAL!

We went to the Utah Shakespearean Festival in Cedar City with Andy and Nicole! Taming of the Shrew, pictured above was one of our favorites! Non traditionally,Set during the close of World War II, and very entertaining!We also watched Fiddler on the Roof, my all time favorite! Both performances were excellent!

The best part ,spending time with the Funderburks!

And eating delicious food, Grilled fish Tacos, grilled corn on the cob! Andy and Nicole know how to entertain!

I am glad I have 5 kids! We just take turns spending time with each one of them, and love every minute of it!!
